of_o our_o neighbour_n sin_n not_o we_o the_o cover_n of_o our_o own_o avail_v we_o nothing_o unless_o we_o repent_v confess_v and_o forsake_v they_o it_o be_v write_v in_o the_o proverb_n that_o he_o who_o cover_v his_o sin_n shall_v not_o prosper_v but_o whosoever_o confess_v and_o forsake_v they_o shall_v have_v mercy_n 9_o other_o presume_v upon_o their_o be_v child_n of_o the_o catholic_n

catholic_n to_o say_v we_o have_v the_o church_n for_o our_o mother_n the_o gospel_n assure_v we_o that_o every_o tree_n which_o bring_v not_o forth_o good_a fruit_n fruit_n worthy_a of_o true_a repentance_n shall_v be_v hew_v down_o and_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n so_o true_a it_o be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o ground_n at_o all_o for_o our_o presumption_n no_o pardon_n to_o be_v obtain_v no_o mercy_n to_o be_v hope_v for_o without_o sincere_a repentance_n and_o a_o thorough-paced_n amendment_n ii_o when_o faith_n have_v once_o level_v these_o mountain_n of_o presumption_n and_o

of_o god_n be_v straight_o it_o direct_v we_o in_o the_o way_n of_o his_o commandment_n and_o lead_v we_o in_o a_o straight_a line_n to_o that_o bless_a end_n for_o which_o he_o make_v we_o it_o prepare_v our_o heart_n to_o god_n that_o we_o may_v serve_v he_o only_o it_o prepare_v we_o for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n within_o we_o that_o every_o loyal_a heart_n may_v be_v the_o throne_n of_o his_o divine_a majesty_n that_o all_o our_o passion_n inclination_n and_o humour_n may_v be_v faithful_a subject_n to_o he_o in_o do_v his_o will_n on_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v do_v in_o heaven_n and_o that_o his_o love_n may_v not_o only_o live_v but_o reign_v in_o we_o and_o not_o only_o now_o but_o for_o ever_o his_o love_n must_v begin_v to_o live_v before_o it_o begin_v to_o reign_v in_o we_o it_o must_v first_o move_v we_o to_o repent_v before_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n which_o always_o be_v at_o hand_n can_v be_v establish_v in_o our_o heart_n our_o penitential_a tear_n will_v never_o sufficient_o prepare_v the_o way_n of_o our_o lord_n unless_o the_o spirit_n of_o love_n begin_v to_o move_v the_o water_n our_o self-love_n may_v cry_v its_o eye_n out_o and_o almost_o break_v its_o heart_n with_o grief_n alas_o this_o crooked_a love_n can_v never_o make_v the_o way_n straight_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o love_n of_o god_n who_o be_v all_o truth_n all_o justice_n and_o all_o holiness_n there_o be_v nothing_o else_o can_v make_v all_o straight_a by_o make_v we_o true_o repent_v and_o move_v we_o to_o detest_v and_o hate_v all_o falsehood_n all_o injustice_n and_o all_o wickedness_n the_o council_n of_o trent_n in_o the_o 6._o ch_z of_o the_o 6._o session_n describe_v repentance_n such_o as_o always_o be_v and_o now_o be_v requisite_a as_o

of_o the_o divine_a justice_n 2._o our_o hope_n of_o mercy_n through_o christ_n 3._o our_o beginning_n to_o love_n god_n as_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o righteousness_n 4._o our_o be_v therefore_o

14._o session_n the_o same_o council_n declare_v that_o all_o true_a repentance_n include_v not_o only_o a_o cessation_n from_o sin_n but_o also_o a_o beginning_n of_o a_o new_a life_n and_o a_o

consider_v a_o little_a this_o doctrine_n and_o we_o shall_v find_v it_o so_o clear_a and_o rational_a as_o not_o to_o need_v the_o authority_n of_o a_o council_n to_o recommend_v it_o to_o we_o 1._o when_o sinner_n sleep_v secure_o they_o dream_v of_o nothing_o but_o the_o sensual_a satisfaction_n and_o the_o transitory_a pleasure_n of_o this_o life_n but_o when_o they_o once_o be_v rouse_v and_o thorough_o awaken_v with_o a_o strong_a belief_n and_o lively_a apprehension_n of_o a_o future_a state_n in_o which_o god_n justice_n will_v eternal_o deprive_v they_o of_o these_o thing_n and_o punish_v they_o severe_o with_o the_o contrary_a there_o be_v nothing_o more_o natural_a than_o to_o be_v strike_v with_o fear_n of_o such_o a_o punishment_n and_o although_o they_o see_v it_o by_o a_o supernatural_a light_n they_o dread_v it_o with_o a_o natural_a fear_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o need_n of_o quote_v aquinas_n for_o this_o truth_n it_o be_v as_o evident_o natural_a to_o to_o fear_v the_o pain_n of_o sense_n as_o it_o be_v to_o love_v the_o pleasure_n of_o it_o 2._o the_o uneasiness_n of_o this_o fear_n be_v troublesome_a to_o we_o and_o when_o it_o be_v great_a we_o dare_v not_o shake_v it_o off_o as_o usual_o we_o do_v our_o creditor_n who_o we_o refuse_v to_o speak_v with_o when_o we_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o give_v they_o satisfaction_n the_o fear_n of_o be_v arrefted_a and_o eternal_o confine_v from_o all_o that_o ever_o please_v we_o when_o it_o once_o look_v big_a and_o terrible_a upon_o we_o it_o soon_o bring_v down_o our_o stomach_n and_o make_v we_o content_v now_o to_o think_v how_o merciful_a god_n be_v and_o seek_v for_o hope_n of_o comfort_n in_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o son_n 3._o when_o we_o be_v thus_o consider_v how_o good_a god_n be_v and_o how_o bad_a we_o be_v how_o great_a his_o mercy_n be_v and_o how_o little_a we_o deserve_v it_o how_o severe_a his_o justice_n be_v and_o how_o much_o we_o have_v provoke_v it_o when_o we_o be_v waver_v betwixt_o hope_n and_o fear_v and_o ponder_v the_o reason_n on_o both_o side_n admire_v that_o incomprehensible_a mercy_n which_o move_v the_o most_o high_a god_n to_o send_v his_o only_a son_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o world_n and_o be_v astonish_v at_o his_o inexorable_a justice_n which_o will_v not_o be_v atone_v by_o any_o other_o sacrifice_n when_o we_o compare_v the_o crookedness_n of_o sin_n with_o the_o straight_a path_n of_o virtue_n the_o truth_n the_o purity_n and_o equity_n of_o god_n law_n with_o our_o hypocrisy_n uncleanness_n and_o iniquity_n when_o we_o study_v the_o charm_a feature_n of_o his_o divine_a beauty_n and_o in_o his_o own_o light_n see_v our_o horrible_a deformity_n it_o be_v then_o that_o we_o begin_v to_o love_v he_o as_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o righteousness_n and_o because_o we_o love_v he_o therefore_o we_o detest_v and_o hate_v our_o sin_n by_o which_o we_o have_v offend_v he_o it_o be_v then_o that_o we_o be_v sensible_a what_o fool_n we_o have_v be_v to_o forsake_v our_o god_n the_o fountain_n of_o live_v water_n and_o seek_v our_o happiness_n among_o his_o creature_n by_o hew_v out_o cistern_n break_a cistern_n which_o can_v hold_v no_o water_n it_o be_v then_o our_o heart_n be_v ready_a to_o break_v with_o grief_n to_o think_v that_o we_o have_v err_v from_o the_o straight_a way_n of_o truth_n and_o we_o try_v ourselves_o in_o the_o crooked_a way_n of_o wickedness_n and_o destruction_n it_o be_v then_o i_o say_v we_o firm_o purpose_v to_o begin_v a_o new_a life_n because_o we_o hate_v the_o old_a one_o and_o then_o according_a to_o the_o prophet_n we_o cast_v away_o from_o we_o all_o our_o transgression_n because_o we_o have_v now_o a_o new_a heart_n and_o a_o new_a spirit_n we_o love_v our_o god_n who_o hitherto_o we_o slight_v and_o for_o his_o sake_n we_o hate_v the_o vice_n which_o former_o we_o love_v and_o love_v the_o virtue_n which_o heretofore_o we_o hate_v by_o what_o
